As\u00ed es ser parte de una&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>, where the common good is one's own good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A tribe is much more than a team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Return to the anthropological concept of&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;It seems interesting to me and should help us understand how we should relate to each other as equals, if what we aspire to is to humanise everything and, as a consequence, to pursue a lofty life purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In essence, the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;a fight for the preservation of a common and shared ideal that transcends the very existence of each individual. The concept of&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;It should be implementable as a working group relationship model and should even go further, becoming the logical relationship scenario between members of any future organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Principales caracter\u00edsticas de una tribu<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The intrinsic characteristics of a&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>, From the point of view of relationships and interactions, are of greater social depth and more resilient than the ephemeral relationships of&nbsp;<em>team<\/em>.I base these assertions on several differentiating facts, and I insist and want to clarify that they are all based on my personal experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The common identity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first differentiating aspect would be<strong>&nbsp;the defence of common identity<\/strong>;Since, beyond individualism, the general interest must always be shared and aspired to by the whole community. It is of vital importance that this purpose be one of high intention; it is what makes the difference and makes it a group cohesion element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making everyone feel that the mission is shared and that their role is crucial is essential for the community to set a focus that is simultaneously common, agreed upon, and desired by all. This defines you as a group and grants it a differential, personal, and unique character at the same time. The pride of belonging&nbsp;<em>to your tribe<\/em>&nbsp;And defending shoulder to shoulder the yearning of your community gives another meaning to your day-to-day and perhaps to your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One&nbsp;<em>Tribe&nbsp;<\/em>understands an initiative as a path in service of a higher purpose, a long-term path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Emotional involvement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second aspect to take into account would be&nbsp;<strong>the emotional implication;<\/strong>&nbsp;since from a more familial view of personal relationships, a&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;It supports its strengths in solid and committed personal relationships. This creates a bond that transcends the workplace and, in some cases, spills into spaces reserved for intimacy that are only open to relationships of the highest trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Focusing on the importance of emotional involvement, I would first highlight the relevance of&nbsp;<strong>preservation of the group\u2019s unity<\/strong>&nbsp;as a differentiating element. A&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;It encourages neighbourly relations and intensifies personal experiences. In it, stimulating cores of affection, cohesion, and emotional support are provoked, and it encourages you to share activities with those you consider equals. Relationship scenarios are created where one seeks affinities and lasting relationships of trust, rather than the acceptance of sporadic relationships of less commitment and temporal depth, as happens in relationships formed between members of a&nbsp;<em>team<\/em>. A&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;One speaks of brotherhood and a team speaks of camaraderie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. The protection of the individual<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The third distinguishing feature worth highlighting would be<strong>&nbsp;the protection of the individual;&nbsp;<\/strong>ya que la caracter\u00edstica m\u00e1s relevante de una&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;It is the concern of some for others, the generation of empathy with the more disadvantaged, their high level of commitment and compassion, the protection of the weakest, supporting and uplifting them. Understanding the other as part of a whole and as an important and indispensable part gives stability to the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>. Co-petition is the relationship position between members of the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>, in the face of states of pure competition&nbsp;<em>equipment<\/em>, where demonstrations of power and smear tactics are aimed at dispensing with the least valid or most inconvenient team member from a hierarchical standpoint, this being the natural scenario for interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;The person is the whole and is part of us (I am because we are). For a&nbsp;<em>team<\/em>&nbsp;The person is a perfectly disposable pawn for something better or less inconvenient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. The existence of leaders and not bosses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, I would highlight the importance of&nbsp;<strong>the<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>The existence of a leader versus a boss;<\/strong>&nbsp;as organisations should maintain social order without centralised authority. Although everything eventually passes through the leader's hands, it must first pass through the filter and the diverse viewpoints of the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>, as it is she who grants the most holistic vision, perhaps from approaches that are found but enriching for the mission of the organisation to which they belong. This new way of empowering the group is, for me, the most courageous and innovative option, of which I have personally seen more advantages than disadvantages. The alignment of talent, focus, and recognition towards each individual within the&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;ensures more humane, powerful, successful, and inspiring organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A community&nbsp;<em>Tribe<\/em>&nbsp;with \u201cUbuntu\u201d<\/strong><br><br>I am convinced of the need to create communities.<em>&nbsp;Tribe,<\/em>&nbsp;that enhance the emotional bonds of their members, that place their purpose far above their ego, and that pursue with determination the eradication of humanity's great sufferings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until just a year ago, I thought a community like this was only possible in my dreams. Today, I am happy to find that I was mistaken. A community like this is what the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/es\/acumen-fellows-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Acumen Fellows Programme<\/a>&nbsp;in the world; a community that leads a paradigm shift and whose members are willing to give their lives to strive for a better life for their neighbours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Proud to belong to this tribe of humans with \u201cUbuntu\u201d, an African concept fantastically described by Desmond Tutu; open individuals who dedicate themselves to and support others, who do not feel threatened when others are capable and good at something, because they are secure in themselves as they know they belong to a great totality, which diminishes when other people are humiliated or belittled, tortured or oppressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Because being human is not the same as being a human being.,&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Ubuntu, now more than ever.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rara vez se da la oportunidad de conectar y compartir con personas con ambiciones elevadas y listas para resolver los nuevos y exigentes retos de la humanidad y a trav\u00e9s de esas nuevas relaciones ser capaz de crecer y hacer crecer a los dem\u00e1s y comprender que no es un hecho aislado, sino que se [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9381","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog-post"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9381","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9381"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9381\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9383,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9381\/revisions\/9383"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9381"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9381"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openvaluefoundation.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9381"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
